Synopsis

Une jeune fille de 19 ans se prépare à commettre un attentat suicide à Times Square. Elle n'a aucun accent, si bien qu'il est impossible de savoir d'où elle vient. Nous n'apprendrons jamais pourquoi elle a pris cette décision, puisqu'elle a été prise il y a longtemps déjà. Nous ignorons pour qui elle travaille, ni même quelles sont ses convictions : nous savons seulement que nul ne pourra l'en détourner. Ce film ne garde de l'histoire que ses points névralgiques, il se concentre sur d'infimes mouvements, des gestes imperceptibles, sur des détails à peine visibles. Dans l'esprit des films sur la figure sacrificielle de Jeanne d'Arc, le visage de la jeune femme exprime toutes les nuances de l'histoire. L'austérité de son visage tranche avec le bruit et la fureur de la ville. C'est ici que la foi est mise à l'épreuve par l'éventualité d'un échec.

Gary Hook, a new recruit to the British Army, takes leave of his much younger brother Darren. Hook's squad of British soldiers is sent to Belfast in 1971 in the early years of The Troubles. Under the leadership of the inexperienced Lieutenant Armitage, his squad goes to a volatile area of Belfast where Catholic Nationalists and Protestant Loyalists live side by side. The unit provides support for the Royal Ulster Constabulary as it inspects homes for firearms, shocking Hook with their rough treatment of women and children. The Catholic neighbourhood has been alerted to the activity and a crowd gathers to protest and provoke the British troops who, though heavily armed, can only respond by trying to hold the crowd back.
